She announced in June that Conor was the father of her unborn 'miracle' baby, having fallen pregnant as the result of an one night stand, after she suffered seven miscarriages undergoing IVF with her ex-wife. In an exclusive chat with MailOnline, Charlotte explained not just the mental but practical implications of the fallout, confessing she's been forced to work around the clock as a new mum just to make ends meet.

Charlotte - who has launched her recruitment consultancy business - explained: 'You struggle financially to make ends start in a new business. 'You don't take a salary very often in your first year - and I'm trying to do this whilst I've got a newborn baby - do you look after a newborn and do recruitment? It's very difficult to manage.'.
